  1. Save the effects/settings as an FX Chain. Then drag the Chain from the browser onto the desired clip(s) and bounce.
  2. Add the new synth. Change the output of the track to the new synth. Simple.
  3. I hate to sound argumentative but trimming a video clip is editing. The Forum has discussed this subject ad nauseum. Like CbB, Da Vinci Resolve is free.
  4. I have found an unexpected behavior with this new feature. It works fine within a single screenset. But if you change to a screenset that has the Track Folder closed; the track focus will switch to the first track, unless it is also in a folder. Otherwise, this EA is working well for me.
  5. If you have a controller connected, perhaps the pitch wheel in it is going bad. I have had that problem with 2 different keyboards. Simple to rule out. Just disconnect the controller(s).
  6. Yes. Keeping in mind the subject of this thread. My interface has 64 outputs and I have used multiple external inserts many times.
  7. I am actually happy with the way recording currently works. I am only trying to find a way for Erik and others to get the behavior that they wish for also. If Auto-Punch is enabled in Sound on Sound mode, there are no splits, previous takes are muted (if that option is selected in Preferences), and you can start and stop recording anywhere within the punch region. So as far as I am concerned this is at least a viable workaround for the OP.
  8. So, as long as the last take is the longest one there are no splits to heal if recording in Comp Mode. And, there are no splits when recording in Sound on Sound mode but previous takes are not muted automatically. What about having an option to automatically mute previous takes in SOS?
  9. Hold down the Cntrl key when changing a grouped control that you don't want the rest of the group to follow.
  10. You can use "Offset Mode" to increase (or decrease) the actual level when the fader is at the 50% position. But use this with caution. Much like Ripple Edit, Offset Mode can create problems if you forget to turn it off.
  11. Those are unused in CbB so you could custom bind that in Cakewalk.
  12. Yep, I member now. Those are Windows defaults if I am not mistaken. [After review I believe I am mistaken] I changed to the above sometime after I realized that custom key bindings were possible.; for no other reason than that I could.
  13. I don't know if "Select through end" has a default key binding. But it can be custom bound to anything you want. I have selection range bound to the bracket keys. "From Now" and "Through Now" are bound to the open bracket and close bracket keys. And "From Start" and "Through End" are bound to Cntrl+ open bracket and Cntrl+ close bracket keys.
  14. It is called "Revert". Right click the control and you can revert to the previous setting.
  15. For your specific example, you should use Quick Groups for that. Select the tracks you wish to solo, then hold the Cntrl key while clicking one of the Solo buttons. That will Solo all of the selected tracks. All track controls will respond to Quick Groups. However, there have been several threads lately complaining of unexpected scroll wheel behavior. Try clicking in the area you want to scroll before scrolling. FWIW I have not noticed a difference in the way Cakewalk responds to scrolling in the Track View compared to Sonar Platinum; but I switched the day CbB became available and have not looked back. Perhaps I have just forgotten how it used to work.
  16. I can't duplicate this. Track Templates and Project Templates are saving correctly here.
  17. Thanks John, That's the next addition to the Band Name List.

    MIDI Device Issues

    Perhaps CbB could handle this better, but I believe the real problem lies with how Windows reacts to disconnecting and reconnecting USB Midi peripherals. I don't know specifically about your devices. But I used a MidiSport for many years and had problems similar to yours. Eventually I discovered that there were hundreds of instances of the MidiSport listed in the registry. Windows was creating a new instance of the device every time I reconnected it. After removing the extra entries from the registry I stopped disconnecting the device and didn't have problems with it afterward. FWIW, I have since replaced the MidiSport with an iConnectivity MIO xl. It connects via ethernet and RTP Midi. The ports show up in Cakewalk even if the device is turned off. And you can connect class compliant usb midi devices directly to it instead of the computers usb ports.
  19. You mean like the Tempo Track (Alt-T)?
  20. Most likely the selected notes actual start times are one or more ticks left of the grid. Try lasso selecting the notes (Right click and drag). The actual selection range will then show in the module.
  21. FWIW, when you install Cubase, be careful not to let it install the Generic Low Latency Audio Driver. If you think you have problems with CbB now, just wait until Steinberg installs that little gem onto your system.
  22. Only someone who doesn't learn from experience would lose hours of work more than twice. Cubase is a great program. You may enjoy working with it, but Cubase is also going to punish you if you continue to work long hours without saving.
  23. A long time ago I found a method to consistently break Cakewalk for DOS; causing it to freeze or crash completely. The method worked in Pro Audio, Sonar, SPlat and continues to work in CbB to this day. The method is simple.... Record or edit for 4 hours without saving. Depending on the complexity of the edits or recordings it may not last 30 minutes. When I Save often, I never have problems with Cakewalk. I hit Cntrl-S after every take; If I'm editing; at least every ten minutes. And here is the important bit. Auto-Save is not the same thing as Save. Auto-Save is a different file and does not "clear" a "dirty" project file. Failure to Save your work is the surest way to lose it in any computer application.
